General announcements

Messages from the Psi-k trustees and other topics of relevance to the Psi-k community, e.g. community-led software codes or databases…

Due to the large number of posts recently, there is currently a delay of several weeks between posts being submitted and the corresponding emails being distributed to all users. Please bear with us while we try to improve this. In the meantime – and until this notice is removed – it would assist us considerably if you could submit only important and/or urgent posts and thus help to reduce the size of the mail queue. Under no circumstances should you resend posts multiple times when you find the emails are not distributed immediately.

In light of the Russian military offensive in Ukraine, we request that announcements relating to events, jobs and other activities associated with institutions supported by the Russian and Belarusian states are not posted to the Psi-k forum.


PSIFLOW -- modular and scalable active learning ... (No replies)

Psiflow is a modular and scalable library for developing interatomic potentials. It uses Parsl to interface popular trainable interaction potentials with quantum chemistry software, and is designed to support computational workflows on hundreds or thousands of nodes. Psiflow is designed as an end-to-end framework; it can orchestrate all computational components between an initial atomic structure and the final trained potential. Using a variety of active learning approaches, the system's phase space is efficiently explored without requiring ab initio molecular dynamics.

Its features include:

  • active learning algorithms with enhanced sampling using PLUMED
  • Weights & Biases logging for easy monitoring and analysis
  • periodic (CP2K) and nonperiodic (NWChem) systems
  • massively parallel execution on thousands of nodes
  • efficient GPU molecular dynamics using OpenMM
  • supports the latest equivariant potentials such as MACE and NequIP

In addition, psiflow features a modular and concise API in which arbitrarily large workflows can be formulated, which can then be executed on a large number of different execution resources, including clouds (e.g. Amazon Web Services, Google Cloud), clusters (e.g. SLURM, Torque/PBS, HTCondor) and even container orchestration systems (e.g. Kubernetes). Visit the psiflow documentation for more details.
